(400,000 Swiss Francs in 5 centime coins, actually)
For awesome video:
http://rt.com/news/swiss-adult-minimum-wage-794 OR http://rt.com/files/news/20/aa/20/00/oliver.mp4
I guess people are honest in Switzerland? I would think in most countries people would be surreptitiously stuffing them in to their pockets and bags.
Quote : | "to mark this historic initiative, a truck in the city of Bern unloaded 8 million five-cent coins, on Friday to represent Switzerland's 8 million citizens." |
Quote : | "To mark the day, a truck full of 8 million five-cent coins was deposited on the square and spread out in front of the Swiss Parliament in Bern on Saturday. " |
Anyway, so I don't understand where the money came from, and what happened to it eventually. The process itself of collecting the money, depositing it, and then collecting it back must have cost a nice bit of money. So, silly from that point of view.
Nevertheless, still cool. Not something you see everyday.10/7/2013 10:55:40 PM |
